“The superintendent gently disengaged his hand, as he again said, “ Adieu. ”
Chapter XLVII. Madame de Belliere’s Plate and Diamonds.
Fouquet had no sooner dismissed Vanel than he began to reflect for a few moments— A man never can do too much for the woman he has once loved. Marguerite wishes to be the wife of a procureur-general—and why not confer this pleasure upon her? And, now that the most scrupulous and sensitive conscience will be unable to reproach me with anything, let my thoughts be bestowed on her who has shown so much devotion for me.” source
